Brightpod Software

Brightpod, offered by Synage, is a cloud-based project management software platform. It is suited for businesses of all sizes, and is primarily used by marketing agencies or the marketing teams of businesses in a variety of industries.

In Brightpod, projects are called “pods,” and users add workflows—made up of task lists, goals and milestones—to them. Tasks can also be assigned a priority level. Visual indicators include progress bars, green thumbnail outlines to indicate the project lead and project color-coding options.

Pre-built marketing workflows include an SEO checklist, an email marketing workflow, a workflow for setting up a website in WordPress and more. Users can also create and reuse customized workflows.

Additional features include adding new users with roles and permissions, including clients and assigning people to a project or task by dragging their thumbnail image to it. Users can choose different views, including the “flow” view, where tasks can be dragged and moved as they are completed.

Brightpod offers a monthly subscription with three plans available. Upgrades include extra storage, additional users, projects and time tracking and reporting features.
